Hi, MathGroup,
in most cases, setting Default Output Format Type to
StandardForm gives the best results. This can be
accessed from Mathematica's CellMenu.
However, sometimes, one wants to highlight parts of
an expression for Copy...Paste-operations (e.g. parts
of an output from Solve, which Simplify does not
simplify well enough). Then, InputForm is better,
epecially if (on Windows systems) one uses
Shift-Control-B to select a parenthesized
subexpression. (Copy...Paste does not well work from
StandardForm cells, if one wants to paste to an
InputCell).
Now I would like to set up certain cells, such that
all output generated by them is in InputForm, whrereas
all other cells use StandardForm. Is it possible to
set OutputFormatType per cell and how is this
accomplished?
kind regards
